Method and system for measuring network operation related parameters in a mobile communication network

Abstract

A method for measuring network operation related parameters in a mobile communication network with a core network and a radio-access network, preferably in form of a LTE- or UMTS-network, includes the steps of a) configuring an entity in the mobile communication network for measuring including network operation related parameters to be measured, b) selecting a measuring entity, c) measuring the network operation related parameters by the measuring entity, and d) analyzing the measured parameters wherein a filtering is performed prior to step d), wherein the filtering is performed on an entity in the radio access network of the mobile communication network and wherein the filtering reduces the amount of data of the measured network operation related parameters for step d). A system for measuring network operation related parameters is also described.
